Match report

Wanderers Ladies v Thame
Sunday 16th February 2003 Click here for Picture Gallery for this game


Sophy Bowden Sophy Bowden played her “magical 45 minutes of the season” scoring 4 of Wycombe’s 7 goals against Thame United Ladies. The visitors played the whole game with only 10 players which gave Wycombe an advantage that we were very slow to respond to!
A panicked start saw Blues make heavy weather of what should have been an open and free flowing game. Leah Asante settled a few nerves when she brought down Karyn Atkinson’s flick and curled her shot past the keeper. Stephanie Dean made it 2-0 when she got on the end of Marion Lyon’s ball between the centre halves.
The second half performance showed more composure and a couple of good passing moves, with Tracy Surges, Helen Scourfield and Marion Lyon combining well to set Bowden off on a series of runs down the left which led to three well taken goals and the "player of the match" award. Not content with a hat-trick, Bowden scored her fourth from the right; her corner was cleared, picked up by Scourfield, who played it back to her wide on the right and as Asante and Lyon queued up to knock in the cross Bowden shot herself, beating the keeper at the near post.
It was not all one way traffic though, by any means and Thame’s movement particularly from throws caused Blues all kinds of problems. Fortunately for the home side they elected to shoot from distance and the ball went safely wide for a goal kick on each occasion. Sturges back peddled quickly to keep out what looked like a certain consolation when a sliced clearance came straight back to a white shirt right in front of goal.
Bowden also played a part in Wanderers last goal, it was her corner that was flicked on to the far post, where Asante laid it back into Dean’s path for her to score her second and Wycombe’s seventh goal of the afternoon.
